Grave of the Fireflies - The misery on display here is so bureaucratic and mundane making it feel so much more real than if it were over-the-top suffering for every moment. So many people had to be complicit for it to shake out like it does. Purely disgusting. Which makes it that much harder to watch - especially these kids are still doing anything to find a shred of happiness mired in all that disgust, that is then amplified by the fact that the movie tells you their fate up front.
The Cheyenne Social Club - This was really fun and cute. The story is kinda all over the place and there are some plot lines that just disappear, but Stewart and Fonda (especially Fonda) are charming enough to make it work.
Ocean's Twelve - Fun sequel for the most part, but man the whole Julia Roberts / Bruce Willis bit drags it down. I think it could work in something a little more silly. This movie is definitely breezy, but it isn't silly. Not a big fan of the major heist and its twist, either.
Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In - 50% Cyberpunk 77, 30% Streets of Fire, 15% Kung-fu Hustle, 5% John Wick.
Evil Dead Burn - It really is the best and most consistent horror franchise of all time.
Tomorrowland - Technically impressive, but ultimately pretty forgettable.
Nobody 2 - Had a good time with this. I was actually enjoying it more than the first until the third act when it gets kinda generic. Leans more into the humor this time, which I liked, but understand why folks didn't.
